Hopefully Helpful School Nurse Tip: School nurses need to be prepared for a variety of medical emergencies on any given day. One of those potential emergencies might be related to a severe hypoglycemia episode. Are you prepared?
School Nurse Emergency Prep
I usually try to use my summer time to prepare for a great start for the upcoming school year. This summer I've put together a training sequence for all of our bus drivers on common medical emergencies. Very exciting; all of the bus drivers will receive a basic first aid power point presentation- complete with handouts and instructions on how to handle different health/medical situations that may occur during their bus route.
Also, there are a handful of drivers with students who have Type 1 Diabetes on their bus. Those drivers are getting a more in depth education on how to treat severe low blood sugar. In doing my research I've found some very useful tools that I wanted to share with the rest of you....
For a free Glucagon training kit you can call Lilly @ 1-800-545-5979.
